Art Unlimited Prize Win!...

[Remorhaz]

Last year I entered the Art Unlimited competition for the first time and was really pleased to have received a Highly Commended award for one of my prints. The competition and exhibition (to enter you must supply printed, framed and ready to present art work) is held each year in NSW and has three major categories of art - Hanging Art (paintings), Photography and Ceramics.

This year I entered the Photography division again and I'm pleased to say that one of my entries has taken out first place (the Print Storm Prize for Photography). Along with the obvious pleasure of having your work judged and selected, first place also comes with a very welcome $3,000 prize

Another of my entries this year also achieved a Highly Commended and a couple of my entries have even managed to sell (the submissions can be marked for sale at the exhibition) which is always good.

Wow!

Well done; congratulations.

I'll bet you're chuffed.

Well done Rodney.

Well Done Rodney! Nice to have your skills confirmed....and there is nothing like money to put a seal on that. As anyone who has been following this forum knows, you have worked bloody hard to develop those skills. Now it's payback time.

Congrats buddy ! Well deserved. Anyone that gets up as early as you do as often as you do gets huge props.

Congrats Rodney, well deserved for your skill and perseverance, which leads to the obvious question; to rise at 3.14am, what time do you go to bed?

Seriously, well done. Your photos are inspirational.

Thankyou everyone for your kind words - it means a lot

Note - I don't always get up at 3:14AM or going to bed rediculously late (and when I do Gerry's often doing the same )

Cam might be miffed when he finds out what print won (and actually I didn't choose it - my mother in law was here and she chose most of the prints to frame and enter and this one was her favourite)... It's the "In the Bowels of the Spaceship" (renamed to "Subway Silence" for the entry) HDR image from viewtopic.php?f=18&t=43064

LSD induced HDR!!

Note that it was the more tamed down one and not the grunge version
